0.05). 73.96% of eczema were taken place at the age of 1～6 months, 13.02% were at the age of 6 months to 2 years, and 13.61% were at the age of 2～3 years. The incidence of eczema is also relevant to feeding patterns, which is 62.23%, 23.08% and 14.79% respectively by breast-feeding, mixed feeding and artificial feeding. Some other factors that relevant to the onset of eczema also have been found in the study, such as constitution, weather, genetic background, and so on. Conclusion Feeding pattern, genetic background and some other factors were relevant to the onset of eczema.

AIM:In order to ensure the quality stability of Fructus Polygoni Orientalis,to study the determination method of the fingerprint of Fruetus Polygoni Orientalis and to establish the fingerprint of Fructus Polygoni Orientalis.METHODS:The HPLC assay was used to establish the fingerprint of Fructus Polygoni Orienlalis and 28 pieces of goods were compared.RESULTS:The fingerprint of Fructus Polygoni Orientalis with 7 common peaks was established.The relative retention time and the ranges of relative area of the common peaks were determined.CONCLUSION:The established fingerprint can be used for the quality control of Fructus Polygoni Orientalis.

Objective:In order to find a safe and healthy way to control fish diseases caused by Aeromonas hydrophila,the immune effect of Aeromonas hydrophila inactivated vaccine on Carassius gibelio was studied.Methods: Three groups were randomly made by each of 10 fishes.Injection groups was made intraperitoneally ( i.p.) with 200 μl, and soaked group with 3 L volumes of inactivated vaccine suspensions respectively while the control group with same volumes of saline.Tissues and blood samples of carassius gibelio were collected after the second vaccination.Then the histopathological, immunological indicators and survival percentage were detected.Results:The relative survival percentage of two groups was 90%and 60%respectively.The serum enzymes of injection and soaked group showed significant differences contrasted with the control group.Histopathological studies revealed that the important tissues have been damaged obviously after the bacterium challenge, while the experiment groups were no damage.Conclusion:Therefore the inactivated vaccine could prevent carassius gibelio diseases that caused by A.hydrophila.

Objective To investigate the effects of capparis spinosa total alkaloid on the pathological changes and the type Ⅲ collagen(COL?Ⅲ)expression in systemic sclerosis(SSc)mice. Methods Mice models with SSc were established by repeated local injection of bleomycin in BALB/c mice back. After administration of capparis spinosa total alkaloid ,the pathological changes of skin and lung tissue were observed ,and the COL?Ⅲ expression was detected by ELISA. Results Compared with the model group,the inflammation and fibrosis of skin and lung tissue were improved,and the level of COL?Ⅲ was markedly reduced by treatment of high dose capparis spinosa total alkaloid(P<0.05). Conclusion Cap?paris spinosa total alkaloid is effective in treating fibrosis of SSc.

Objective To investigate the effects of capparis spinosa total alkaloid on type collagen (ColⅣ - ),Ⅳmatrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in bleomycin-induced systemic sclerosis (SSc) mice; To explore the effective mechanism of capparis spinosa total alkaloid on fibrosis of SSc. Methods Totally 90 BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control group, model group, penicillamine group and capparis spinosa total alkaloid low-, medium- and high-dose group. Mice models with SSc were established by repeated local injections of bleomycin in mice back, except for the control group. Mice in medication groups received external application with capparis spinosa total alkaloid cream;mice in penicillamine group were given penicillamine for gavage; mice in the control and model group received external application without substance, one time a day, for 60 days. The contents of MMP-9, TIMP-1 and PAI-1 in serum and Col- in skin tissue were dⅣ etected respectively by ELISA after the last medication. Results Compared with the model group, the levels of MMP-9 and ratio of MMP-9/TIMP-1 markedly increased and the levels of Col-Ⅳand TIMP-1 markedly decreased in medium and high- dose of capparis spinosa total alkaloid group (P<0.05, P<0.01). But the level of PAI-1 was not influenced (P>0.05). Conclusion Capparis spinosa total alkaloid is effective in treating fibrosis of SSc by adjusting imbalance of MMP-9/TIMP-1 and decreasing expression of Col-Ⅳ.

Epmedii Folium is a commonly used traditional Chinese drug, and is beneficial for the "liver" and "kidney" s function in Chinese medicine. Recently, the origin of this drug is more complex. Most of the identification studies are emphasized on the species certified by the pharmacopoeia and other related species from the same genus of Epimedium, but few was emphasized on the counterfeit. In this paper, one counterfeit of Epmedii Folium, identified as the dried leaf of Quercus variabilis (Fam. Fagaceae), has been reported based on field investigation, comparing specimen of Epmedii Folium and Q. variabilis,using the macroscopic, microscopic and TmC methods. It is resulted that they could be identified clearly not only by the macroscopic features, such as the vein character and the tooth apex, but also by the microscopic features, such as the vascular bundles of the midrib, the non-glandular hair, the anticlinal wall of the epidermis cell and the calcium oxalate crystal. Furthermore their TLC chromatograms showed also difference. This study will give reference for the identification of Epmedii Folium and the related supervision and inspection work.

Objective Magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was applied to study the cantral auditong pathway in patients with .Methods A total of 30 cases of acquired hearing loss patients were divided into 2 groups ,group 1 (15 ,sudden deafness) and group 2 (15 ,with duration up to 2 years SNHL group from the time of onset) .A total of 15 cases of normal-hearing patients on MRI examination were selected as the control group for the same period .All subjects received DTI of whole brain .The values of the whole brain DTI were obtained from the inferior colliculus and lateral lemniscus ,consisting of the fractional anisotropy (FA) ,radial diffusion (RD) ,axi‐al dispersion (AD) and mean diffusivity .Results There were significant differences(P<0 .05) in FA of bilateral in‐ferior colliculus among sudden deafness group ,SNHL of 2 -year -history group and the control group by ANO‐VA .FA of inferior colliculus in the control group was higher than that of in the SNHL group ,but lower than that of in the sudden deafness group .RD of lateral lemniscus in the SNHL group was higher than that of in the sudden deafness group(P<0 .05) ,MD of lateral lemniscus in the sudden deafness group was higher among the other 2 groups ,and there were signigicant(P<0 .05) .For AD of the inferior colliculug and lateral lemniscus ,there were no differ‐ences among the 3 groups (P>0 .05) .Conclusion There was no obviously abnormal change on the central auditory processing in sudden deafness group ,but significant destruction was found on 2 years SNHL group .It indicated that central auditory processing of the history of sensorineural deafness affected the structural changes of the central au‐ditory pathway .

Background: Insomnia often responds to the orexin receptor antagonist suvorexant. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of suvorexant for Chinese patients with primary insomnia over 6 months. Methods: A total of 120 patients with primary insomnia were assigned randomly to two groups that received placebo or suvorexant (40 mg) for 6 months. The primary outcomes were the total sleep time (sTST), time to sleep onset (sTSO), and sleep quality (sQUAL). The secondary outcomes were the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) score and adverse events. Results: A total of 111 patients completed the study and all of them were included in the final analysis. Suvorexant showed greater efficacy than the placebo in enhancing sTST, sTSO, sQUAL and ISI score at months 1 and 6. Serious adverse events were documented in 2 patients (3.3%) in the suvorexant group and 1 patients (1.7%) in the placebo group. The most common adverse event was somnolence, which occurred in 7 patients (11.7%) in the suvorexant group and 2 patients (3.3%) in the placebo group. No death related to suvorexant treatment was recorded. Conclusions: Suvorexant was efficacious and well-tolerated in a group of Chinese patients with primary insomnia over 6 months.
